Port to Gtk3

[humitos]

This ticket is a task created to port Get Books to Gtk3. It's like a reminder and it will be useful to write down some documentation links that I will be using to do the port.

•  http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/GTK3/Porting

[humitos]

Defining custom signals:

• Gtk3
  •  http://python-gtk-3-tutorial.readthedocs.org/en/latest/objects.html#objects
• gtk2
  •  http://www.pygtk.org/docs/pygobject/gobject-functions.html

This is useful to replace the gobject.signal_new call.

[humitos]

Useful scripts:

• Replace "gtk" by "Gtk" and more:
  •  http://git.gnome.org/browse/pygobject/tree/pygi-convert.sh
• List of new enumerates:
  •  http://dev.laptop.org/~dsd/20110806/pygi-enumerate.py

Gtk3 Reference Manual:

•  http://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/3.4/

This is my progress until now. I'm attaching this here to have as a reference if someone else is porting another activity and as a backup as well

I'm writing a lot of information here:

Using the activity with sugar in spanish, when the user do click on a book, the information is not displayed and in the log there are a error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/home/gonzalo/Activities/GetBooks.activity/GetIABooksActivity.py", line 633, in show_book_data

book_data = _('Title:\t\t') + self.selected_title + '\n'

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 1: ordinal not in range(128)

Is very important solve this error.

Filled the error in the previous comment as #3763.
